80/20

One thing that tends to make lots of folks hesitant about becoming an AFF (anti-fungal foodie) is the seeming enormity of eating "differently". 

Don't let this keep you from trying it and feeling better as a result.

The basic rule is 80/20--80% "regular" foods and 20% specialty foods. Yep, it's that easy.

I have a little space in the pantry that holds my 20%...this includes almond, brown rice, and coconut flour; grapeseed, coconut, and olive oils; agave and coconut nectar and xylitol; shredded and flaked unsweetened coconut; brown rice pastas; brown rice; golden flaxseed meal. With these ingredients, I can pretty well whip up just about anything from several anti-fungal/gluten-free/paleo cookbooks and websites.

The rest come from the grocery store--produce, meat, odds and ends--80% worth.

So don't let it stop you from trying it out...80/20 is pretty easy to live with, don't ya think?
